Re: [PD] declaring parent's patch's path

2018-04-06 Thread Alexandre Torres Porres
I found a solution by updating one of my externals. I upgraded [else/dir] to be able to get the parent's directory, and I'm using dynamic patching to create [declare -path "parent's dir"]. I imagine this is impossible with vanilla, but I'm good now. cheers 2018-04-06 16:47 GMT-03:00 Alexandre

OK, thanks. Nice example using pointer. On My side, I used to use [text define] (to load the text file) and [text size] (to query the size with a 'bang' message). ++ Jack Le 06/04/2018 à 16:36, Fede a écrit : > Hi Jack, > > Well, yes, it was something ‘like’ that. > > here it is with the

Yeah sorry I have no idea how deep these nest, I am not familiar with that part of the code. In this case the memory could be allocated in the stack and then passed to something like   pd_pushsymnoalloc(t_pd *x, t_gstack* y)  which should in turn skip the allocation. But yes, a cached value

I don't think it makes sense to have a malloc() and free() for each call to a msg box. Pd is already not very real-time friendly, why make it worse? There could be ... - statically allocated memory for t_gstack y in pd_pushsym - a pre-allocated memory pool meant for short-lived memory allocations

Hi list, with the latest Debian testing versions (0.48.1) the font for the console menus comes up with 24pt size, although the font dialog indicates 12pt. Upon clicking 12pt once more the font changes to 12pt. My .pdsettings file holds -font-size 12 but the described behavior exists

Hi Jim, Like [soundfiler]’s “-resize” flag, this would be a very useful feature for array loading. You can load a text file and then query its size, something like: [read -c your_file, bang( | [text] |\ [text size] | [array size your_array] Best, fede On Apr 6, 2018, at 10:38 AM, Jim

I am reading a text file into an array. I would have expected the array size to grow to the same as the number of lines/elements in the text file but it seems to default to a size of 100. Is there a way for the size of the array to take on the size of the text file automatically? If not how do

[PD] message boxes and console errors

2018-04-06 Thread Liam Goodacre
Since message boxes have been receiving attention and might be updated in 0.49, I thought I'd bring up another request. If a message box generates a "$2 out of range" error, you currently can't locate the source of that error using the Find Last Error feature. This can lead to headaches in
